It's April 22nd. You're listening to Music News today, AI-powered music coverage. I'm Corey with the story. Kim Petrus just dropped her new, single need for speed along with a wild music video on April 22nd. The track hits hard on label pressure for Quick Cash and it's her first release under her own indie label Bunhead Records, leading into her upcoming, Album Detour. In the video, she plays poker and bets her 2023 Grammy for Best Pop Duo or group performance on Unholy with Sam Smith, only to lose it, big time. That self-roasting vibe ties back to her public beef with Republic Records earlier this year when she called them out for zero support and beg to. Go independent on social media. Fans are buzzing about her bold move to DIY, seeing it as a fresh start after the drama, but the videos over the top flop signs like, career is over. Driving home her middle finger to doubters. This speed demon era has Petrus flooring its solo now and detour is shaving up to be

her unfiltered comeback ride.
